[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "Plinkity the Rainbow Unicorn" by Jane Owen.]
Plinkity the Rainbow Unicorn is a children's book written by Jane Owen and illustrated by Nick Talbert. It is a lovely story about a unicorn named Plinkity-Plonk because that is the sound her hooves make when she flies. Her mother's name is Swish-Swoosh, and her daddy is called Rumble-Grumble. The other unicorns are amazed by Plinkity because she has many colors. They wonder why she has so many because they only have one color. Some are a bit upset about that.
The book offers readers an educational perspective on diversity. This aspect was what I liked the most about it. The unicorn's issues with her multiple colors make for an absorbing background that frames a discussion about diversity. This theme arises in a light and fun way, resulting in an easily understandable narrative for children. Above all, I liked how the author framed the narrative. I believe readers will relate to how the unicorns addressed their differences and dealt with them.
I particularly enjoyed how Plinkity's parents assure her that whatever color one has doesn't matter. Encouraged by them, Plinkity overcomes her issues; she starts to make friends and have fun with them. I also liked that other unicorns even wish they were multicolored too. I thought the author brought this up skillfully.
Additionally, I found the book's illustrations to be particularly alluring. In my opinion, in a children's book, the illustrations play a central part. I find them to be even as important as the story itself, for they hold the children's attention and awaken their imagination. The illustrations were a noteworthy positive aspect of the book, clearly depicting the unicorns and their different colors.
Lastly, I rate this lovely children's title 4 out of 4 stars. I have no negatives to mention. Also, I thought the book seemed professionally edited, for I did not find any grammatical errors in it. I believe the book will appeal to younger children who are fond of animals.
